🏯 Kyoto Station Walk: From the Shinkansen East Transfer Exit to the Grand Staircase. I unexpectedly encountered “falconry”!🦅✨

I took a walk from the Shinkansen East Transfer Gate to the Shinkansen Central Gate via Kyoto Station’s famous “Grand Staircase.”

🚶‍♂️ While leisurely walking, I unexpectedly came across a falconry scene!

As I was walking around the premises, a real hawk suddenly appeared in front of me.

“Are you really going to fly a hawk in such a busy station?”

I was surprised at first, but the sight of the hawk soaring through the sky was truly impressive.
It was a strange and precious experience, as historic culture and modern station space came together.

Even if you normally just pass through a station, you’ll make new discoveries if you stop and take a moment to walk around.

We recommend taking a “mini stroll around Kyoto Station” for a little while before or after your trip!
